Singing at School!

From the El Reno Tribune; Feed My Sheep, Tend My Lambs

Jamie Biller gave a moving performance at Sacred Heart Catholic School Thursday morning while performing her song “The Shepherd Cannot Run” . Jamie wrote and recorded this song about Father Stanley Rother of Okarche. The title of the song “The Shepherd Cannot Run” comes from a letter Father Rother sent during the Christmas Holidays to the Oklahoma City Archdiocese where he declared “A Shepherd cannot run at the first sign of danger.” Father Rother was aware of the danger of him remaining in Guatemala, but wanted to stay to tend to his flock. Students at Sacred Heart sat in awe and wonder and sang the chorus “Feed My Sheep, Tend my Lambs” with her.

Jamie said, “I had the song on my mind for about two years, but finally finished it in about a day in a half this summer.” She recently traveled to Nashville to record it professionally and the song will be available for download later this year. Currently the song can be heard on the Oklahoma City Archdiocesan website on a page dedicated to the Beautification of Father Rother.

So went for a photo shoot for the new album and lovely pictures you’ll be seeing on the site!   Can I just say that my photographer is AMAZING!  Of course, not only, am I so lucky and blessed to have her as my niece, but also the fact that she would generously share her talent with me!  She captured items of Fr. Rother’s in words I cannot describe.  Her pictures speak for themselves.  So if you are in need of a great photographer, don’t hesitate to contact her.  http://sarahwarmker.com/

The Shepherd Cannot Run

I am so excited to have my new album, The Shepherd Cannot Run recorded!  The finishing touches are happening and if all goes well, it should be available by mid-December!   The title of the album is from a new song I wrote in honor of Fr. Stanley Rother.  Currently his cause for canonization for sainthood in the Catholic church is being considered in Rome.  I have more information about him on the Fr. Rother page.  I have also included on the album some traditional hymns with a more contemporary sound.  Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing and Be Thou My Vision are a few examples of some of the tunes I selected.  Hope everyone will enjoy it!
